    I swear I wish I could invent a time machine ; one of the first things I'd do would be to bet on Buster over Mike by KO.

I was expecting a Hopkins UD, not very wide though, since I thought Pavlik would be much more busy.
        I never gave Pavlik a chance either. I shouted about Bernard schooling his ass long and loud before the fight even went off. Even joking that I felt sorry for Kelly because the steel mills are shutdown in Youngstown and he'd have no place to work afterwards.

        Everybody thought I was crazy. Just like they always seem to when I pick Hopkins in his big fights.

        Go figure.

          Please don't remind me of that night in San Antonio ; as a big Barrera fan, it still stings.

            Wont happen in a fight against Mayweather. One can only dream. Any other Boxing Star then yes, but Money?

            No way.

              I still don't get how Pavlik was favourite over Hopkins just means Hopkins has no fans.

                Similar to when Pavlik beat Lockett. No one could believe that the biased Yank ref robbed Gary that way.

                  I was merely pointing out the fact that that poster was spewing senseless garbage that's been disproven time and time again about the "long count".

                  Marquez beating Mayweather would be right on par with Pacquiao beating Oscar, I'd say.

                  And if he knocked him out it'd be even bigger, I think. Due to the fact that Oscar had been defeated and KO'd before, while Floyd has never tasted either.
                  Yes I know you were just replying to the other guy saying it'd be douglas-esque. I just replied to your post agreeing with you.

                  I think upset wise it would be big. Bigger than Pac-DLH but definitely not top 5 biggest upsets ever.

                  But in the bigger scheme of things if Marquez were to pull it off I think it would remove Floyd entirely from the fighter of the decade discussion and a very justifiable case made that Marquez is the front runner in the fighter of the decade discussion.

                    They fail to realize that IMO Hopkins has the best defense in the sport. Also, watching Wlad owns and others go from saying how Pavlik would "embarrass, ****, brutalize, and KO Hopkins ending his career" to disowning him completely and saying that he was an embarrassment to his slavic heritage was ****in priceless.
